I have had 2.5 ml juvederm fillers over the past year, my most recent being 4 month ago of 1ml. I am suffering with flu past few days and my lips have swelled up and feels like a hard lump on the left hand side. Is this anything to worry about or will it subside?
Answer: It’s not unusual for patients to have contour irregularities of their lips immediately following injections with Juvederm Thank you for your question and photograph. It’s not unusual for patients to have contour irregularities of their lips immediately following injections with Juvederm. In most patients this is usually related to swelling and may take several weeks to resolve. Unfortunately in some cases, these lumps may be related to uneven injection of Juvederm. However, in your case, this may be due infection. Your doctor may want to dissolve the filler with an enzyme known as hyaluronidase. I recommend you follow up with your physician for an evaluation. Best of Luck!
